First WHO Ministerial Conference on Global Action Against Dementia
The aim of the Conference is to raise awareness of the socio-economic burden created by dementia, and to highlight that this burden can be reduced if the world collectively commits to placing dementia high on the global political agenda.
The first day of the Conference will cover issues from research and drug regulation to care and human rights. On the second day, ministers from around the world will come together to discuss how we can collectively move the global dementia agenda forward.
The conference is supported by the Department of Health of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Both days will be webcast.
Access to the webcast will be from the WHO website. For any queries regarding the conference, please contact [email protected]
